Chocolate Mug Cake

A rich, chocolatey dessert made in minutes!

Ingredients

  • 2½ tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1½ tablespoons granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder

  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil

  • 1 Natural Choice egg

  • Optional: 2 tablespoons chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Mix the dry ingredients. In a microwave-safe mug, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Stir until well blended.

  2. Add the wet ingredients. Pour in the milk, vegetable oil, and beaten egg. Mix until the batter is smooth and no dry ingredients remain.

  3. Stir in the chocolate chips. Gently fold in the chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey bite.

  4. Microwave. Place the mug in the microwave and cook for approximately 45 - 60 seconds, or until the cake has risen and the top is mostly set. Cooking times may vary depending on your microwave.

  5. Enjoy! Allow the cake to cool for a minute or two before digging in. Top with whipped cream, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or a few extra chocolate chips for an extra-special treat!
